Yeray Borges commented on WFCORE-2766:
--------------------------------------

The was discussed with [~pskopek] arriving at the following conclusions:
* There might be different implementations of CS API which could be dynamically changed from outside and the reload not be required from WF point 
* Mark as reload-required resources which are referring other CS will create a mess between resources (e. g. resources being referred by other CS, which are being referred by other CS ...), even if they are fine because contain the same passwords.
* Reloading on each alias update/remove of any CS, even if they are not being referred, is not an ideal situation

For these reasons, is left to the user to take the decision if he needs to reload or doesn't after update an alias.

This issue will be resolved once these two issues are merged: WFCORE-2426 and WFCORE-2867
Once those issues are merged, at least if the user updates the credential-reference of one CS, a reload will be required.
